Definitions

  • the invention relates to a shower set with a holder for a hand shower and with a shower slide that carries the bracket and is height-adjustable with a wall-mounted guide rod is connected and at least one as has elastic body formed locking element, which has an adjustable Clamping device is pressurized and exerts a clamping force on the guide rod and is designed to fix the shower slide.
  • a shower set is known from DE-U-88 11 299.
  • shower sets of the type mentioned above make it possible for public or private showers to attach the hand shower to a bracket that itself again held vertically adjustable on a guide rod attached to a wall is. In many cases, it is desirable to mount it on the guide rod infinitely variable without being able to move.
  • a shower set that this is made possible for example, from German patent application DE 40 00 621 A1 known. With this set, the one carrying the bracket is on the guide rod movable shower slide designed as a housing surrounding the wall bar, in which sits a locking element.
  • This locking element stands with one on the back the guide rod molded and extending along its length engaged so that the clamping force exerted by him easily by manual operation of the shower slide can be overcome, but this force is still sufficient the shower slide with the holder in the desired position on the guide rod to keep.
  • the bracket is in the known shower set pivotally held on the shower slide.
  • An advantage of the known shower set is that by locking the shower slide on the Traces of use are only visible on the rear side of the guide rod are visible and thus the overall appearance of the guide rod do not disturb after prolonged use.
  • the bracket due to the pivoting mobility the bracket the position of the hand shower slightly to the respective purpose be adjusted.
  • the shower slide according to DE-U-87 03 is similar 949 built.
  • a disadvantage of the known clothing is that the clamping effect of the locking element with regular use of the hand shower due to Soiling of the guide rod and wear of the locking element decreases in such a way that it often no longer suffices after a long period of use, the shower slide to hold automatically on the guide rod.
  • Another disadvantage is the relative small and practically not expandable contact area between the guide rod and the brake body pressed over the springs.
  • the invention has for its object a shower set at the beginning mentioned type to improve that their braking effect even after a long time Tool life is still good and still with simple handling.
  • the tubular Locking element assigned to the back of the guide rod in the shower slide and is parallel to the guide rod, with its through hole a tensioning screw, which can be rotated freely, is used as a clamping device, in which a nut is screwed into a, transverse to the longitudinal axis of the locking element arranged recording is included and that above the locking element an insert forming a stop for the locking element is arranged is so that when the clamping screw is turned, the locking element by clamping between the nut and the insert increases in thickness, making it a exert sufficient force to hold the shower slide on the guide rod.
  • the force exerted on the locking element can be changed and is always to be kept the same.
  • the locking element is compressed and exercises, for example because of its with the Clamping due to the increase in thickness accompanying the clamping device, one in the direction clamping force directed to the guide rod. If the shower set found that the clamping force of the locking element is no longer sufficient to hold the shower slide on the guide rod, because of the adjustability of the clamping device, the locking element can simply be re-tensioned until the clamping force exerted by him is sufficient to hold the shower slide.
  • the Locking element is a tubular, long, parallel to the guide rod Body with a corresponding contact surface.
  • the locking element and the guide rod is in contact with the guide rod and to arrange the slide valve that moves the shower slide.
  • this slider prevents signs of use that are distracting from the visual impression Guide rod arise.
  • the material of the locking element optimally in terms of interpret the exertion of the clamping force without taking into account the risk of Gluing the locking element on the guide rod to have to take through a slight displacement of the shower slide on the guide rod can be hindered could.
  • the locking element is tubular.
  • the clamping screw explained above advantageously as a clamping means.
  • the through opening of the locking element should have a double-conical cross-section exhibit. This cross-sectional shape increases the thickness of the elastic locking element reached with a pressure load in its longitudinal direction.
  • Handling and versatility of the device according to the invention can also be improved in that between the shower slide and the bracket a swivel joint is formed for the bracket and that the joint by a sealing element arranged between the shower slide and the holder the environment is sealed. It should take into account an extended service life the set, the sealing element into a holder or shower slide molded groove to be an inserted O-ring.
  • the invention is particularly characterized in that a simple and shower slide that can be safely adjusted and adjusted and an easily rotatable mounting head are created.
  • the influences that arise when using such showers can be cleverly switched off.
  • the individual parts of the locking element are in a housing having shower slider safely and elegantly housed. The handling is simple, but overall the aesthetic conditions are optimal sufficient shower set results.
  • the shower set has one on a guide rod 1 with an oval cross section movable shower slide 2 and a bracket 3 carried by this on.
  • the bracket 3 and the shower slide 2 are each designed as a housing and connected to one another via a swivel joint 4 such that the holder 3 is opposite the shower slide 2 by a parallel to the guide rod 1 Swivel axis X is pivotable.
  • the swivel joint 4 is through the in one Housing opening 2a of the shower slide 2 engaging pin 5a one in the holder 3 seated joint body 5 formed by a pressed on it, disc-shaped locking element 6 is held in the shower slide 2.
  • the surfaces 2b, 5b of the joint body arranged in the region of the swivel joint 4 5 and the shower slide 2 are flat, with the surface 2b of the shower slider 2 is formed a circular groove 2c.
  • a locking element 8 is arranged in the area of the shower slide assigned to the rear of the guide rod 1 2, a locking element 8 is arranged.
  • the locking element 8 is tubular formed and has a through hole in the longitudinal direction double-conical cross-section, with the cross-section each facing the front Areas of the locking element 8 expanded.
  • the locking element 8 a receptacle 8a oriented transversely to its longitudinal axis for a nut 9.
  • a clamping screw 10 screwed into the through hole of the locking element 8 is introduced.
  • the clamping screw 10 is in the shower slide 2 freely rotatable, because its screw head 10a with its underside at the edges a through hole 2d of the shower slide 2 for the screw neck 10b Clamping screw 10 is supported. Its top is on a screw head mount 11 supported, which is pressed into a depression 2e of the shower slide 2, the also receives the screw head 10a of the clamping screw 10.
  • the tubular locking element 8 is in the shower slide 2 Insert 12 arranged.
  • This insert 12 forms with his the one Guide rod 1 assigned surface a guide for the shower slide 2 on the Guide rod 1.
  • the insert 12 forms with the locking element 8 assigned surface a stop for the locking element 8.
  • the insert 12 has a projection 12a, which in the Through hole of the locking element 8a engages.
  • a second slider 14 is on the opposite side of the first slider 13 Guide rod 1 arranged and with its facing away from the guide rod 1 Front surface supported on the housing walls of the shower slide 2 so that it is also forms a guide for the shower slide 2 on the guide rod 1.
  • the rear wall of the shower slide is used to install the shower set 2 as a cover 15 which can be locked with the rest of the shower slide housing 2 educated.
